Released,
back then, as a budget title for the PS2 by the small British development team
PlayIT, GrooveRider does deliver in the fun factor! Its super-fast action and
innovative gameplay makes us struggle with our own brain to make decisions on
the fly to avoid other cars and obstacles!
You’ll
probably notice that all the graphical power of the playstation 2 is somewhere
else, but that doesn’t mean that this little game isn’t enjoyable. Lighting
effects are awesome and there’s a pretty nice set of car types to choose!
In my
opinion, only the music could be a little better, but, once again, for a budget
title we could not ask for much more!
I’ve had a
blast with this one! And it has some nice and fresh ideas that are missing in
many of today’s full priced titles!
• STAR WARS STARFIGHTER
Released in
2001, this was LucasArts’ first PS2 game, so that kind of makes it special and valuable,
right?
This game
marks a substantial step up from almost every previous console Star Wars
installments released before the PS2 came along.
In Star
Wars Starfighter we take control of three Starfighter pilots and several
different spacecraft to help stop the invasion of Naboo.
Missions
are quite simple and show some lack of creativity from the programmers. You
just either have to destroy stuff or protect stuff. That’s it. But the action
is highly frenetic and you’ll be extremely occupied to think of something else!
This title
is somewhat of a spin-off of Episode 1 that puts us in the pilot seat and
brings to my memory those awesome early and mid 90s PC and Mac exclusives
X-Wing, Tie-Fighter and X-Wing vs Tie-Fighter games.
Starfighter
is, with no doubt, one of the best Star Wars game ever released on a console.
• GRAND THEFT AUTO: LIBERTY CITY STORIES
This PS2
game is a port of a very successful PSP title that was released in mid 2006 at
half the price of the PSP version.
Liberty
City is practically the same as the one we saw in Grand Theft Auto III, but
with much more incorporated elements like, for instance, motorcycles that we
could only find first in GTA Vice City. Besides this, the camera movement is
much better than the one present in GTA III. The sad side of this title is that
if we touch the water we’re instantly dead. Unfortunately, the character we
play, Toni Cipriani, just can’t swim or even climb!
The
gameplay area is far inferior than the one from its predecessor, GTA San
Andreas, but the story is freaking amazing, with some interesting plot twists
and characters, and the dialogue is just marvelous.
You won’t
regret playing this GTA title. It will offer, at least, 20 hours of gameplay and
some awesome story plot, voice acting, sound effects and licensed music!
• INDIANA JONES AND THE STAFF OF KINGS
All right,
everyone says that this game is crap. Crapy story, crapy camera movement, etc.
It was even announced for xbox360 and ps3, but it was, eventually canceled in
those platforms after constant delays.
The game
was initially announced in 2005 and was only released in mid 2009 for the PS2,
PSP, Nintendo DS and Wii.
Staff of
Kings is not an easy game, but, in my opinion, it offers a good combat system,
nice puzzles and awesome interface. Enjoying this game depends largely on how
much of a fan you are of Indiana Jones. And, as I’ve mentioned in other videos,
I’m a huge fan of the franchise and I’m enjoying it a lot!
• PROJECT EDEN
This cyberpunk
action-adventure game created by Core Design and released in 2001 by Eidos,
takes the player to this futuristic underworld filled with a crap load of
puzzles to solve.
With
Project Eden, the creators of Tomb Raider tried to redefine the third-person
action genre. In this sort of squad-based gameplay, where we control, at a
time, 4 different characters, we’re faced with ingenious puzzles and clever
level design that challenges our brain more than just shooting stuff up.
Our mission
is to find two technicians missing from a meat company. That’s right, they
worked for an organic meat corporation! Original stuff, to say the least!
Our four
operatives must infiltrate a dangerous local gang and face some mutant animals
deep through the city limits. A great puzzle solving type of game that will
keep you occupied for quite a while!
• MICRO MACHINES
I’ve
recently reviewed, for the PC, the very first Micro Machines title originally
released in 1991, and this one right here is a sort of come back to that old
gem but in a playstation 2 environment, if you know what I mean. So, this kind
of remake of the original title brings some good memories from those glory days
of DOS gaming, but with improved sounds and graphics.
The
mechanics are the same, but the drivers and vehicles are a bit improved.
It’s a nice
addition to my PS2 collection and it’s also fun to play, but don’t expect it to
be this blockbuster title from this great franchise.
Buy it,
only if you find it for a couple of bucks.
• R-TYPE FINAL
This is
simply one of the best games for this console. A must have title for everyone
that is collecting for the Playstation 2, even if you’ve never played the arcade
original from 1987.
It was
originally planned to be the last game in the series, but, in 2007, Irem
released R-Type Command for the PSP.
But, that
doesn’t matter. R-Type Final is an astonishing title with awesome little
details that will blow your mind. For instance, depending on the difficulty
setting chosen by the player right in the beginning of the game, different
flight paths and playing experience is provided for each level! It’s like if
you’re playing a different game all over again!
R-Type
Final has a huge selection of crafts to unlock and choose. There are exactly 101
ships to take out for a spin and to confront the Bydo empire.
Prepare
yourself to be amazed by its awesome environments and huge bosses in this
tribute to one of the greatest shooting games of all time.
• METAL SLUG 3
Probably
the most famous run&gun franchise ever! When the first Metal Slug title hit
the arcade saloons it was an instant success story! The animations, sounds,
music and funny looking characters were just right.
In this PS2
installment of Metal Slug 3 we get all that good stuff that made this franchise
a huge hit all over the world.
It also
introduced into the series alternative routes to choose and make it slightly
different every time you play it.
Back in
2004 it may have been kind of odd to see 2D games being released into the
market, but this is such a good argument that everyone shouldn’t resist! I
believe that the console version of Metal Slug 3 is even better than the arcade
original! And bring a friend, ‘cause this game is awfully hilarious played in
cooperative mode!
• WRC: RALLY EVOLVED
Once again
I’ve picked this European PS2 exclusive game for one of my videos. Why? Because
it’s a lot of fun! It’s easy for everyone to pick a car and take it to those
slippery and dusty surfaces. If you feel the need, there’s a lot of driving
aids to help you start your career as a rally driver, but the best experience
comes from turning off all those options.
The
graphical environment in this WRC title is just gorgeous and there’s plenty of
action during a stage that will probably distract your concentration and leave
you co-driver angry for not listening to his pace notes.
Before
advancing to the MotorStorm franchise on the PS3, the guys at Evolution Studios
released, in late 2005, this last PS2 driving game. And, I believe, it was a
pretty nice farewell to the good old playstation 2.
Again, this
was not intended to be a hardcore rally game. It was meant to be fun and it
really is! But it’s not just the fun factor the main player here, sound and
graphical aspects were really well implemented. So enjoy it! And beware of
those loose rocks falling down in front of your car, other drivers with their
wrecked cars over the trackside, thick fog and smoke from a huge fire nearby,
etc.
• TOMB RAIDER ANNIVERSARY
After two
awful games from this amazing franchise, Crystal Dynamics came back to the
series and revived it with, in 2006, Tomb Raider Legend and, a year later, with
this awesome remake of the original game from 1996.
Everyone
that played the original game should play this updated release. Back in 1996
not everyone had access to a voodoo or 3dfx graphics accelerator card to play
Tomb Raider with good frame rates and smooth graphics. So, if this was your
case, here’s your chance to play it, but with enhanced graphics and some new
fancy moves from Ms. Lara Croft!
